I dono Im guessing a LOT.....

I can say I never wanted ANY van until I saw this....wrong color, but thats easily changed....

Just imagine it as a stretch car hauler though :)

Here is a picture of a truck I just bought out of North Carolina 60 days ago. Nice clean truck, all original. Ramp trucks are just cool!

You do know this is a photoshopped image?

We were 50-50 on if it was or not, dosent suprise me....dosent matter....easy build maybe 4 weeks with 3 or so good metal guys and an english wheel.....less of course the original pieces parts fitting......that to me would be the most pain in the arse finding and stripping the original stuff for the car....sheet metal is easy....finding GOOD old bits is the challenge.

2 of those "good metal" guys are trying their damdest to get me to help build something like it...then again theyre van guys too....screwy bunch they are....The can make anything out of metal and I mean anything, they cant change a set of points or put a timing chain in a car :)

Thats the GREAT thing about photoshop compared to my old cocktail napkin sketches, you can get a REAL good idea of what it is actually gonna look like....and the scale is better than the napkin :)

I love it , we photoshopped about 4 different paint schemes on the Chally and decided they all sucked....better than ordering a wrap or putting paint on to find that out....those woulda just sucked in bigger size and cost.

Thats even cooler in a way its a photoshop....it means if someone were to build a "REAL" one they actually werent copying someone elses sweat and blood...and while were at it it would be a DAMM fine car hauler...not an "Oh thats a copy of #####'s custom van"

Too bad I dont have enough time this year....Ive looked at this a couple times over the last year and thought....this is just sick....the fact its a photoshop is even better :) Maybe after my "retirment" next year .......

I was thinking it was, but not 100% convinced.

You fools, can't you see that this is the shuttle craft from the Starship Enterprise! I think Spock put the Hemi in it.
